Lily Robbins series

Sixth-grader Lily Robbins, after receiving a compliment about her looks from a woman in the modeling business, becomes obsessed with her appearance and with becoming a model.

At last Lily is in middle school and writing an anonymous advice column. It's her secret claim to fame. The job is all fun at first, but then more serious questions fill her mailbox, even a letter from someone whose parents are getting a divorce. When Lily barges into the ethically gray areas of life, someone gets hurt. That's when Lily learns that God is the real "Answer Man."

Lily is convinced she's destined to become a great outdoorswoman. However, when the family is stranded in a snowstorm, she learns all about survival, and how you work with what you have.

Twelve-year-old Lily finds herself questioning her faith when her newly adopted sister, Tessa, disrupts their home and intrudes on Lily's new-found love of horses, then has a serious accident just when she and Lily are beginning to get along.

Lily befriends a French boy, but the boy's sister hates Lily and will stop at nothing to get Lily out of her way.
